Inside Carnival Venezia | Full Ship Tour 2023
Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creator provides a comprehensive walkthrough of the Carnival Venezia, a vessel originally built for Costa Cruises and later transferred to the Carnival fleet through an extensive dry dock. The tour highlights the ship's heavy Italian theme, specifically inspired by Venice, which is evident in the Piazza San Marco atrium and the Grand Canal restaurant featuring a full-size gondola. The video explores various decks, detailing dining options such as the Marco Polo Restaurant, Fahrenheit 555 steakhouse, and the Italian-concept El Viagio. The creator also examines entertainment venues like the main show theater, the Limelight Lounge, and the casino, noting the presence of both smoking and smoke-free sections. Additional amenities covered include the Cloud9 Spa, the Lido deck pool area with its unique enclosed roof, and the adults-only Serenity area on the top deck. The tour concludes with observations on stateroom upgrades, such as real sinks and glass shower doors, and a reflection on how the ship's unique design may differ from the traditional Carnival experience for long-time cruisers.

Creator's Key Takeaways
I'm a big believer that you can have a great time on any cruise but I also know you could have a better time on a ship that aligns with your preference right so during my time on board I did speak with several long time Carnival Cruisers who didn't really care for the ship when I pressed them for why they replied that it was simply too different from what they're used to which I get people are creatures of habit
the pool deck is a departure from other Carnival ships you may be used to because this one has an enclosed roof which will make it perfect for sailing out of New York City especially in the winter time
the Amari bar it'll remind you of the Alchemy bar because it has the same setup as the Vista class although a different name but do not fret there is a lot of alchemy bar drinks still on the very last page of the menu
